K K best actor !!! this is an excellent film! dialogue delivery and acting by KK was so perfect and real in this film. one of the best political drama based films made in Bollywood. Also music by Piyush ji is superb. especially "duniya o ri duniya" song is written so well. For Piyush Mishra, the man who has crafted a spectacular soundtrack playing a wonderfully deranged character with a Rajputised John Lennon around his neck. For Kay Kay Menon, the actor getting a rare role worthy of his range. For Abhimanyu Singh, for his sheer overpowering charisma and his earthy screen presence. And for Deepak Dobriyal, who, just by nodding earnestly and non-committally at a paan stand while he's being poked with questions, shows that he's one of the most interesting actors in the country right now.
Anurag Kashyap has faced seven long years and a tremendously uphill struggle to make Gulaal, and it is heartening to see the stylish auteur throw himself headlong into a project this grounded. He doesn't completely pull it off, but this is a fantastically watchable film that scores high on moments.
